Qingtang City.

Final Results——

Xie Wenjun 13.04.

Zhang Honglin 13.47.

Fan Jiang 13.50.

……

In other words.

Zhang Honglin also directly met the target score because of this result.

However, the current competition means that even if you meet the requirements, you can't guarantee a spot in the next round.

It all depends on how many contestants ultimately qualify.

This is also a change brought about by the new system.

but.

It's clear that Zhang Honglin is very happy to have directly qualified. At least it means she has a chance to step onto the Bird's Nest, doesn't it?

Compared to those who don't even have a chance.

very good already.

Then came the women's 200 meters.

In the women's 200-meter event.

Actually, the only ones worth watching are Chen Juan and Wei Yongli.

The rest of the people could say they don't even have a chance of meeting the standard.

This is not meant to look down on others.

23 seconds 20.

How many people can do that?

Let's not even talk about China.

The whole of Asia.

People who can achieve this score.

There aren't many.

On the original timeline, the fastest time for our country was Wei Yongli's 23.39 seconds.

This time is about four levels below 23.20 seconds.

Even looking at the whole of Asia.

Only three people were able to directly meet the requirements.

One is Victoria Zaybikina.

Her best time is 22.77 seconds.

Moreover, the best result in this race was against a headwind of nearly 1 meter.

It can be said that their hard power can still be improved.

If this 92-born competitor makes you think that there are still competitors like this in Asia...

The second-ranked one is even more outrageous.

At least looking at this result in 2015.

Quite exaggerated.

Because this contestant was born in 98.

In other words.

She will not turn 20 for another four years.

She's only 16 years old.

This guy can run a time of 23.03 seconds.

The athlete's name is Salva Id Nasser, a Bahraini athlete.

And surprisingly, her best event is the 400-meter dash.

The 200-meter mark refers to a combined event.

The third person is the contestant from Xiao Rizi, Fukushima Chisato.

Her best time this year is 23.11 seconds.

It is also within the acceptable range.

Yes, you heard right. In the original timeline, only three people in all of Asia were able to reach this qualifying standard.

and so.

You can see the weakness of Asian 200m on the world stage.

Fortunately, both Chen Juan and Wei Yongli broke through the time barrier, achieving times under 23 seconds.

Naturally, you can easily advance and qualify for the next round.

Therefore, this 200-meter selection race was meaningless for them.

Because the domestic standard is like this, even if there is a selection competition, even if you can win the selection competition, if you cannot meet the standard because of the IAAF's standard, then only athletes who meet the standard can go.

and so.

To avoid such an awkward situation.

It's best to try to meet the target within a reasonable one-year period.

Otherwise, even if you win the selection competition.

You are not qualified to participate in the competition.

The final 200-meter race has slated for the final. The list of finalists is as follows:

Chen Juan, Wei Yongli, Kong Lingwei, Yuan Qiqi, Ge Manqi, Liang Xiaojing, Lin Huijun, Wang Xuan, Cheng Chong.

You can see that this applies not only to the women's 100 meters.

Now, in the 200-meter section.

Another two years passed.

Two more years passed after Moscow.

Those little girls have grown up again.

One by one, they've all entered the age where they need to take on important responsibilities.

Even the relatively young Ge Manqi and Liang Xiaojing.

The former is already 17 and a half years old.

Liang Xiaojing turned 18 a few months ago.

It's normal for them to start achieving some results.

After all, it's within the original timeline.

Liang Xiaojing.

200 m.

That's third in the country.

When they were in Moscow, the two girls were just 16 years old.

He is now an adult.

This is the power of time.

Especially among young people.

Two years might not seem like much to an adult. But for a minor…

Two years can transform a girl into a complete adult.

At least in terms of physical development, they have begun to enter the adult stage.

They are beginning to gradually enter the peak of adulthood.

These people have ravaged the domestic stage in the past two years.

The other traditional domestic players are simply not on the same level as them.

Chen Juan and Wei Yongli usually go out to participate in the Diamond League.

The rest of the younger ones are responsible for running intercontinental and domestic races.

This was enough to make the other competitors cry for their parents.

Especially during domestic competitions.

These people are young.

When they run, they show absolutely no sportsmanship.

They have no idea what it means to respect the elderly and care for the young.

They have no idea what seniority-based ranking means.

It's about getting things done inside.

It's about charging headlong into danger.

Those domestic runners who saw these little kids would privately mutter something to themselves—

They're a bunch of bandits.

They show absolutely no mercy.

That's nonsense. They weren't trained in the same system as you, so why should you show them any consideration?
To quote what G.M. said in an interview.

I don't know her at all.

What sentimentality should we show?
There's no room for sentimentality.

These words.

That's really genuine.

That's so honest.

"Alright, since the 200-meter race is about to begin, we can see a group of familiar faces already on the track."

"The girls who were in Moscow back then have gradually grown up, and their performance in the domestic arena has been quite impressive in recent years."

"I guess they are also eager to prove themselves in a major international competition."

"To declare to themselves that they have grown up."

"Alright, the group assignments are in." Yang Jian said, looking at the director's prompt.
"The first hurdle."

"The second imperial decree."

"The third one is Liang Xiaojing."

"Chen Juan, the fourth one."

"The fifth one is Wei Yongli."

"Road 6, Gemanqi."

"The 7th person is Kong Lingwei."

“The 8th one is Yuan Qiqi.”

"Ninth, Lin Huijun".

"We'll see if the eight athletes can meet the qualifying standard during this final competition, or run even better times to make themselves more consistent within the qualifying range and increase their chances of qualifying for the competition."

"This shot is very important, especially for those players who were just close to qualifying."

"A particularly good opportunity to meet the requirements has been prepared."

"If I can meet the standard in this competition, it will be very beneficial for my participation in major competitions later on."

"Another opportunity to gain experience."

"I hope that our young athletes can seize this opportunity and strive to have more people break the 23.20-second mark."

After Yang Jian and Li Tao finished speaking.

The competition began.

The command "On your marks" pierced the thin air, and as all nine contestants bent down and placed their hands on the ground, Chen Juan's movements stood in stark contrast to the others.

Traditional athletes extend their arms straight, with their palms completely flat against the track and their fingertips pointing forward in a "flat support" position.

Chen Juan deliberately bends her elbows to 120°, clenchs her fists, touches the ground only with her knuckles, and makes a 30° angle between the back of her hands and the track—this is her signature "bent-arm start".

By shortening the arm support length and shifting the body's center of gravity forward by 5 centimeters, a shorter power exertion distance is reserved for the explosive burst at the moment of initiation.

Now everyone knows.

This is her signature move.

Her posture resembled that of a cheetah poised for battle, with her hips raised 2 centimeters above her shoulder line, her knees bent at a slightly greater angle than other runners, her front knee almost touching the ground, and her back foot firmly planted on the starting block, her ankle taut like a fully drawn bowstring.

Beside her, Wei Yongli maintained a standard "straight-arm start," with her arms outstretched and her center of gravity slightly back, attempting to use a "stable start" to cope with the potential slowdown in power exertion caused by the high altitude.

Liang Xiaojing, in the fifth lane, had her hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, with her fingers slightly open when her palms touched the ground.

This is her usual "wide-space support," intended to enhance starting stability.

Kong Lingwei is a typical "compact straight-arm starter". Her arms are straight but the distance between them is narrower than shoulder width. Her elbows are straight with almost no room to bend. Her center of gravity is very low, her shoulders are almost touching the ground, and her back leg only touches two-thirds of the starting block. This is her usual "short-distance burst" posture, trying to seize the position with explosive power at the moment of start.

Ge Manqi, on the other hand, adopted a "natural support" approach, with his arms outstretched and his palms casually placed on the track, his fingers naturally spread apart, without any deliberate tension. His body posture was relatively relaxed, his hips were at a moderate height, and his legs were bent at a slightly smaller angle. It looked more like he was adapting to the rhythm of the track than eager to burst out.

Yuan Qiqi in lane eight adopted a "narrow-grip straight-arm start," with her hands just shoulder-width apart, her elbows slightly elastic and not completely locked. Her head was tilted to the left, seemingly paying attention to Kong Lingwei beside her. Her hips were raised slightly higher than Liang Xiaojing's, and her front knee was about 10 centimeters off the ground. Before starting, her calf muscles trembled slightly, activating fast-twitch muscle fibers.

Lin Huijun in lane nine used a "low center of gravity straight arm start," with her shoulders lower than everyone else's, almost touching the track. When her arms were straight and supporting her on the ground, her palms were slightly turned inward. Her body weight was completely between her arms and front leg, her back knee was bent at a very high angle, and her foot was completely flat on the pedal. She was obviously trying to reduce air resistance when starting by using a low center of gravity.

Cheng Chong, on the other hand, is a "conservative straight-arm starter".

With arms outstretched and supporting his weight on the ground, the movement was standard but slightly stiff. He applied too much force when his palms touched the ground, causing his knuckles to turn white. His center of gravity was shifted backward, with his hips level with his shoulders and his front knee far from the ground. Clearly, he lacked control over the power generation for starting at high altitude and wanted to first stabilize through the starting phase before accelerating.

"preparation--"

The electronic password was activated.

The stadium fell silent instantly.

Chen Juan's bent-arm support began to show subtle changes. The angle of her elbow bend decreased to 110°. She pressed down on the track with her knuckles, causing her shoulders to sink slightly. Her entire upper body was like a compressed spring, ready to launch at any moment.

At this moment, she deliberately slowed her breathing, making each inhale shallow and short, to avoid excessive expansion of the chest cavity and affecting core rigidity.

Wei Yongli's buttocks trembled slightly, a habitual movement she made before starting, activating fast-twitch muscle fibers through the slight trembling of her calf muscles.

Liang Xiaojing stared intently at the ground markings 10 meters ahead, trying to use visual focus to calm her mind.

Bang————————

The instant the gun fired.

Chen Juan's advantage of the "bent arm start" instantly came into play.

Her elbows straightened rapidly in 0.01 seconds, and as her knuckles left the ground, her hind legs pushed off the starting blocks with a powerful thrust. The explosive force of her quadriceps was instantly transmitted to her whole body through the "short lever arm" formed by her bent arm support.

The power transmission of a traditional straight-arm start requires a long path through the "palm-forearm-upper arm-shoulder", while a bent-arm start directly shortens this process.

Reduces the burst damage output delay by 0.005 seconds.

Her body was almost "bounced" out.

He seized a slight advantage from the very first step, leaning his torso forward at an angle of 35°, far exceeding the 30° of the other competitors, like a black lightning bolt, instantly breaking the deadlock at the starting line.

Wei Yongli's start was equally quick. The stability brought by her straight arm support made her first step precise, but the delay in the transmission of explosive power made her 0.01 seconds slower than Chen Juan, and she was instantly half a foot behind after the start.

Although Liang Xiaojing's wide-stance support was stable, the thin air at high altitude caused a slight disruption in her breathing rhythm when starting, and her foot slid slightly when she landed her first step, making her stride frequency a little sluggish.

Kong Lingwei and Ge Manqi started almost simultaneously. Their straight-arm starting motions were standard, but they lacked the explosive power brought by Chen Juan's bent-arm start, so they could only follow closely behind the first group.

Three meters after the start, Chen Juan's advantage of bent arms became even more pronounced. Her arm swing was perfectly coordinated with her starting action. After the bent-arm start, her arms naturally maintained a 90° bend and swung, without the need for the "straight arm to bent arm" adjustment process that straight-arm starters had to go through. Her arm swing frequency remained stable at a high level from the very beginning.

Her arm swing trajectory is close to both sides of her body. When swinging forward, her fists are close to her waist, and when swinging backward, her elbows do not go beyond the midline of her torso. This "compact arm swing" reduces the impact of air resistance at high altitudes, allowing each swing to efficiently propel her body forward.

Entering the bend.

At 5 meters, Chen Juan was already several body lengths ahead of Wei Yongli, with Liang Xiaojing, Kong Lingwei, and Ge Manqi close behind, forming the second echelon.

Yuan Qiqi and Lin Huijun started a bit slower and fell into the third tier.

Wang Xuan and Cheng Chong were temporarily at the back due to a difference in their starting power. At this time, the figures on the track had already spread out in layers. Chen Juan's bent-arm start was like a sharp knife, carving the mark of the lead in the starting stage. The high-altitude air of Qingtang City did not seem to have a significant impact on her explosive power.

This was thanks to her targeted hypoxic training before the competition, which allowed her muscles to adapt to a rapid power generation mode in a hypoxic environment.

As the car entered the acceleration phase of the curve, Chen Juan's advantage of "bent arm start" was transformed into "acceleration inertia".

Her bent-arm swing continues naturally after the start, without the need to adjust the movement, allowing her to focus her attention on generating power in the curve earlier.

At this point, her core begins to play a crucial role, with her external oblique muscles slightly contracting, causing her body to tilt 3° towards the inside of the curve.

This tilt angle has been repeatedly refined to both utilize the centripetal force of the curve to increase speed and avoid excessive tilting that could lead to imbalance.

This season, her push-off technique has shifted towards "external force generation".

When pushing off with the left foot, the sole of the foot rotates slightly outward, using the ground reaction force to enhance the centripetal force inward.

When pushing off with your right foot, maintain a positive force to ensure that the forward momentum does not diminish.

This "internal and external coordination" push-off strategy made her speed increase more obvious when accelerating in the curve than on the straight, and her instantaneous speed at 15 meters exceeded that of other athletes by 0.5 meters per second.

Wei Yongli was chasing after him with all her might. She had finished adjusting her straight-arm start and increased the amplitude of her arm swing in an attempt to increase her stride frequency through a "wide arm swing". However, the air resistance at high altitude made her arm swing a little difficult, and each backswing required an extra 5% of her energy.

And if we continue like this...

I can do it myself...

First, it won't hold up.

20 m.

Chen Juan's lead continues to widen.

Her arm swing frequency remained stable, with the elbow angle dynamically adjusted between 90° and 100°. When swinging forward, she naturally raised her elbows using inertia, while deliberately lowering them when swinging backward, creating a "high in front, low in back" swing trajectory. This trajectory better complements the body's tilt when cornering, reducing unnecessary energy consumption.

At this moment, her breathing and arm swinging form the rhythm of "Su's Breathing Method". When she inhales, her chest cavity expands slightly. With the help of the inertia of the arm swinging backward, the oxygen exchange efficiency is increased by 8%, which is especially crucial in the oxygen-deficient plateau environment.

Wei Yongli did not give up the chase. Her core control ability began to show. She leaned her body to the inside of the curve at an angle of 4°, trying to increase her speed through greater centripetal force.

The force of pushing off the ground increased by 10% compared to the start, but the activation efficiency of fast-twitch muscle fibers in the high-altitude environment was slightly lower than that in the plains, resulting in a limited increase in speed, and he was unable to close the gap with Chen Juan.

However, she never intended to defeat Chen Juan.

Can be approached.

He used the opportunity to compete against Chen Juan to push his limits.

It is enough.

Wei Yongli understood this very well.

The competition in the second tier, consisting of Liang Xiaojing, Kong Lingwei, and Ge Manqi, is fierce.

The three were almost neck and neck.

Liang Xiaojing's arm swings are more graceful.

Kong Lingwei's push-off was more powerful.

Gemanci, however, kept a close grip with his steady rhythm.

The distance between the three is currently less than 0.1 meters.

25 m.

Chen Juan's bent-arm swing and cornering power generation form a perfect closed loop. Her arm swing is no longer a simple "assistance," but is deeply integrated with core tilt and ground push-off power.

When the left arm swings back, the left external oblique muscle contracts simultaneously, causing the body to tilt further inward.

When swinging your right arm forward, relax your core muscles on the right side to maintain your balance.

This coordinated movement of "arm swing-core-push-off" makes each of her steps feel like "gliding along the ground" on a curve, continuously increasing her speed.

The other athletes all showed slight hesitation in their movements.

Chen Juan's improved abilities.

This has been evident to all in recent years.

By the end of the 30-meter curve, Chen Juan's lead had reached six, seven, or eight body lengths, or even more.

The timer showed that she took 3.65 seconds, 0.25 seconds faster than Wei Yongli.

Wei Yongli followed closely behind with a time of 3.9 seconds.

Liang Xiaojing, Kong Lingwei, and Ge Manqi crossed the 30-meter mark almost simultaneously, all in 4.0 seconds.

Yuan Qiqi and Lin Huijun are 0.2 seconds behind, placing them in the third tier. Wang Xuan and Cheng Chong, however, have fallen nearly two body lengths behind the first tier due to disrupted rhythm during acceleration on the curves.

On the track at this moment, Chen Juan's tangent line showed strong adaptability. She not only gained the upper hand in the starting phase, but also continued to expand her advantage in cornering acceleration. The high-altitude environment seemed to be an "amplifier" of her technical advantages.

40 m.

Chen Juan's body tilt angle remained stable at 3°. Her core muscle groups acted like a precise controller, finely adjusting the contraction strength of her external oblique muscles in real time to ensure that her center of gravity always fell at the optimal point of force exertion when the curvature of the curve changed.

When pushing off the ground, she no longer pursues extreme explosive power, but maintains stride length through "moderate force" and slightly reduces the external rotation angle of her left foot to avoid excessive consumption of calf muscles.

Even during continuous acceleration, the chest cavity remained stable, without the rapid breathing commonly seen in other athletes.

Extreme speed on curves.

The peak speed phase on the curves is the "speed peak zone" in the 200-meter race, and it is also the ultimate test of the athletes' technical and physical limits.

Chen Juan's "bent arm start" advantage was transformed into "extreme speed endurance" at this moment. Her arm swing frequency reached the highest point of the entire race, the elbow angle was reduced to 90°, and the arm swing trajectory was closer to her body. Every swing was like "boosting" her body.

At this point, her body tilted at an angle of 4°.

Utilize the centripetal force of the curve.

The explosive force generated by pushing off the ground is converted into forward speed to the maximum extent.

Her push-off technique entered a "high-efficiency burst" mode, with her left foot rotating outward to its maximum angle. The point of force exertion when her foot touched the ground was precisely located directly below her body's center of gravity, and the horizontal component of the ground reaction force accounted for 85%, far exceeding the conventional 80%.

This precise control of her push-off is the result of repeated optimization during her hypoxic training.

By simulating the high-altitude environment and adjusting the angle of foot contact with the ground, it ensures that efficient power output can be maintained even in a hypoxic state.

At this point, her instantaneous speed reached its peak. Although there is no specific data, judging from the widening gap between her and the other competitors, she had clearly surpassed the speed level of her opponents.

Wei Yongli's top speed performance was equally impressive. Her arm swing demonstrated a stable advantage, with better symmetry in her arm swing than Chen Juan's, allowing her to maintain good balance during high-speed cornering. Although her push-off force decreased, she was still able to maintain high propulsion thanks to her strong muscle endurance, only falling short of Chen Juan in peak speed.

Compared to before, the gap in position has widened further, but...

It's a bit smaller than last year.

This means that Wei Yongli is pushing herself to her limits through competition.

Chen Juan, however, is still in control of the pace.

The competition in the second tier intensified, with Liang Xiaojing and Kong Lingwei engaging in direct confrontation. At the 70-meter mark, Kong Lingwei suddenly exerted her strength, accelerating with a powerful push-off and increasing her body tilt angle to 5°, attempting to overtake Liang Xiaojing from the inside.

Liang Xiaojing reacted quickly, immediately adjusting her arm swing frequency and reducing her body tilt angle, using the space advantage of the outer track to firmly maintain her position.

The two figures almost overlapped, and the sound of their feet landing echoed rapidly on the track, creating a series of rapid "thumps." Ge Manqi was left half a body length behind the two and could only speed up to catch up, but due to exhaustion, he was unable to close the gap.

Chen Juan made a slight adjustment to her arm swing, increasing the elbow angle to 95° and slightly increasing the arm swing amplitude.

This is her preparation for the upcoming "over the top of the arc," by fine-tuning her arm swing to build up energy for the transfer of her body's center of gravity in advance.

The efficiency of gas exchange in the lungs remains consistently high.

This prevented her fast-twitch muscle fibers from becoming oxygen-deprived during high-intensity exertion, allowing her to conserve sufficient energy for the subsequent apex and downhill sections.

Wei Yongli's top speed lasted longer than expected. Although her core muscles were stretched to the limit, she was still able to maintain the body's tilt angle. The time it took for her to touch the ground when she pushed off was shortened to 0.06 seconds, which is the shortest time she has been able to achieve so far. It was almost like "bounced up as soon as her foot landed", demonstrating her strong muscle control ability.

But her breathing was already noticeably rapid, each inhale accompanied by a slight panting sound, and her stamina was about to reach its limit.

Passing the apex of the arc.

It is the key point connecting the curve and the straightaway, and also the area where the rider is most likely to lose their rhythm.

Chen Juan demonstrated a strong ability to adjust at this moment, preparing to cross the arc two steps in advance.

The left arm swing amplitude is reduced by 10%, and the right arm swing amplitude is increased by 10%, which is achieved by the difference in the force of the left and right arm swings.

This slightly shifts the body's center of gravity outwards, preparing the body to overcome the centripetal force of the curve.

Her body tilt angle gradually decreased from 4° to 2°, and her core muscles adjusted the contraction strength of the external oblique muscles in a "progressive relaxation" manner to avoid imbalance caused by a sudden change in tilt angle.

When pushing off the ground, the left foot rotates outward rapidly, decreasing from its maximum range to 5°, while the right foot maintains a positive force exertion, forming a "left adjustment, right stability" pushing-off strategy. This allows the body to smoothly exit the curve trajectory at the moment of passing the apex of the arc without affecting the forward speed.

At this moment, she deliberately paused her breathing for 0.1 seconds to avoid her breathing interfering with her core adjustment at the crucial moment of passing the top of the arc—this is the "breath-holding technique at the top of the arc" that she summarized in her training.

By briefly holding her breath, she creates a more stable environment for her core muscles to exert force, ensuring the precision of her weight transfer. When her body fully passes the apex of the arc, the deviation of her center of gravity is no more than 0.5 centimeters, almost "zero error" in passing the apex. This control over technical details allows her to waste no speed during the transition phase.

It appears seasoned and skillful, with a smooth and effortless style.

Chen Juan, 25 years old.

Entering his peak period.

A peak in the integration of physical function and technology.

Wei Yongli's adjustment when crossing the top of the arc... seemed a bit rushed.

She didn't start to reduce her body tilt until she was 1 meter away from the top of the arc, which caused a 0.1-second delay in the transfer of her center of gravity. When she pushed off the ground, her foot slipped slightly, and her stride frequency dropped by 0.1 steps per second.

Although she quickly regained her rhythm by using the stability of her arm swing, Chen Juan still managed to pull ahead by one body length.

Liang Xiaojing's over-arc top movement was standard. With the stable support provided by the wide-swinging arms, the error in the center of gravity transfer was controlled within 1 centimeter. However, due to a slight misalignment in the breathing rhythm and the connection between the movements, her speed dropped slightly after over the arc top, allowing Kong Lingwei to take the opportunity to close the gap by 0.05 body lengths.

When Kong Lingwei passed the top of the arc, she chose to make an "aggressive adjustment", and her body tilt angle dropped sharply to 1°. She tried to take over the inside route by quickly turning to the straight. However, due to insufficient core control, her upper body swayed slightly and her arm swing rhythm was disrupted. Not only did she fail to overtake Liang Xiaojing, but Ge Manqi behind her closed the distance.

Gemanci adopted a "conservative adjustment," maintaining a small body tilt angle when passing the top of the arc. Although he lost less speed, he missed the opportunity to overtake and remained firmly in fifth place.

Downhill bend.

After passing the apex of the arc, the track enters the downhill section, where the curve gradually flattens out. Here, riders are required to shift from "powering up in the curve" to "preparing to power up on the straight".

The core of this stage is to "switch power mode while maintaining speed".

Chen Juan's tangent technique once again demonstrated its advantage at this moment, as the swing amplitude of her arms increased simultaneously, and the elbow angle returned to 95°.

The arm swing trajectory changes from "close-fitting swing" to "smooth forward and backward swing," preparing the arm swing for the upcoming straight-line sprint.

Her push-off pattern completely breaks away from the "inside and outside coordination" strategy in corners. Both feet use positive force, and when the ball of the foot touches the ground, it is completely parallel to the center line of the track. The horizontal component of the ground reaction force accounts for a stable 83%, which ensures forward momentum and avoids excessive force leading to physical exhaustion.

The core muscles shift their focus from "maintaining tilt balance" to "stabilizing trunk rigidity." The rectus abdominis and erector spinae muscles tighten simultaneously, stabilizing the forward tilt angle of the trunk at 33°, reserving space for further acceleration during the straight-line phase.

Wei Yongli demonstrated strong muscle control during the downhill phase, increasing her straight arm swing amplitude to the maximum in an attempt to increase her stride frequency and compensate for the speed loss when passing the top of the arc through a "wide arm swing".

When she pushed off the ground, she deliberately increased the power of her right leg to restore her stride length to its peak. Although she was unable to narrow the gap with Chen Juan, she successfully maintained her second-place position.

At this point, her fast-twitch muscle fibers had entered a high-intensity working state.

The sportswear was mostly soaked with sweat.

The neck muscles trembled slightly due to rapid breathing.

Yet he still gritted his teeth and maintained a steady pace of exertion.

The "three-way battle" in the second tier has become fierce. Liang Xiaojing realized the pressure from Kong Lingwei's pursuit, so she actively increased her arm swing frequency on the downhill section. Taking advantage of the tailwind, the air resistance during her arm swing was 5% less than that of Kong Lingwei, giving her a slight advantage in stride frequency.

Kong Lingwei, with her stronger explosive power, would occasionally try to overtake with a powerful push-off. The two figures almost overlapped on the track, and the sound of their feet landing was as dense as drumbeats, making it difficult to distinguish between them.

Gemanqi, however, held on tightly to the two men.

Her power generation mode switching was the smoothest. Although there were no obvious acceleration movements, she maintained a stable rhythm, keeping the gap between her and the first two within three body lengths.

Waiting for the opportunity in the final sprint.

Bang bang bang bang bang.

Prepare to turn into a straightaway.

This is also when the difference in body position is fully revealed starting from the 200-meter mark.

Chen Juan's downhill technique has fully transitioned to the "straight-line preparation state." Her arm swing trajectory is more inclined to extend forward and backward, her core is very rigid, and her torso leans forward at a stable angle, ready to unleash her full power once she enters the straight.

At this moment, her speed did not decrease at all; on the contrary, due to the tailwind and the smooth switching of the power mode, it showed a slight upward trend.

Wei Yongli's stamina began to decline noticeably.

This reduced her push-off force by 10% compared to when she was at 85 meters.

Although the stride frequency remained high, the propulsion was not as strong as before. The breathing rate increased to 2 times per second, the chest rise and fall increased to 4 centimeters, and each inhalation was accompanied by obvious panting.

But she still didn't give up. Relying on her years of experience in competitions, she held firm to her rhythm, preventing the second-tier teams behind her from having a chance to overtake her.

Bang bang bang bang bang.

Bang bang bang bang bang.

Chen Juan instantly tightened her core muscles, increasing the angle of her torso's forward lean from 33° to 36°. This adjustment further shifted her center of gravity forward, providing stronger forward inertia for acceleration on the straightaway.

The push-off technique enters the "straight-line burst mode," with the force exerted by the left and right feet being completely consistent. The point of force exertion when the sole of the foot touches the ground is precisely located directly below the body's center of gravity, and the horizontal component of the ground reaction force soars to 88%.

This was her highest efficiency in exerting force throughout the entire process.

Thanks to the energy-saving effect of the tangent technique in the early stages, she still has plenty of explosive power reserves at this point.

The moment she entered the straight section, Chen Juan switched her breathing rhythm to "two steps and one inhale." When inhaling, her chest cavity expanded rapidly, and with the help of the airflow brought by the tailwind, she could exchange oxygen within 0.1 seconds, injecting new energy into the fast-twitch muscle fibers.

Her stride length increased significantly, with each step being 0.05 meters longer than during the downhill section, but her stride frequency did not decrease, and her speed increased instantly upon entering the straightaway.

Like an arrow released from a bow.

They sped off toward the finish line.

Wei Yongli's transition into the straightaway was slightly delayed. It took her 0.02 seconds to switch her straight arm swing from "wide" to "standard". This brief adjustment time caused her to miss the opportunity to accelerate immediately.

However, she quickly regained her rhythm with her strong muscle memory, increasing her torso's forward lean angle to 34° and restoring her push-off force to 80% of her peak. Although her speed increase was not as great as Chen Juan's, she successfully maintained the gap with the second-tier team.

At this moment, her gaze was fixed on Chen Juan's back, and she pushed her legs to their maximum speed, trying to close the gap during the straightaway.

The second group's "three-way battle" took a turn for the better as they entered the straightaway. Liang Xiaojing was the first to complete the transition, and her wide-stretch arm swing translated into a stable advantage on the straightaway. Her balance control during the arm swing was better than that of Kong Lingwei and Ge Manqi. After entering the straightaway, her stride length immediately increased, instantly widening the gap between her and the other two.

Kong Lingwei made a minor mistake when entering the straight section, with a 0.01-second lag in the connection between her arm swing and push-off, causing her stride frequency to drop briefly and allowing Liang Xiaojing to pull ahead by 0.5 body lengths.

With her "seamless connection," Ge Manqi followed closely behind Kong Lingwei, narrowing the gap between them to one body length.

They sprinted almost side by side.

A straight-line showdown.

The competition begins to test speed and endurance.

Cardiopulmonary capacity.

even.

Willpower.

130 meters.

Chen Juan's gaze swept to both sides for the first time—there was no one there.

I looked back.

Only then could one clearly see Wei Yongli's chasing posture on the track beside her, and also catch a glimpse of the fierce competition in the second echelon, but her movements did not fluctuate at all. Instead, she further stabilized her rhythm by slightly adjusting the amplitude of her arm swing.

Compared to Chen Juan's ease, Wei Yongli's situation was much more difficult.

Her fast-twitch muscle fibers have entered a "critical state of fatigue".

In order to keep up with Chen Juan, it seemed a bit...

That's a bit too much.

This results in muscle soreness with every push-off.

Yet, thanks to the muscle memory developed over years of training, he still maintains a stable stride frequency and stride length.

Although the range of her straight arm swings decreased, they remained symmetrical and powerful, and her torso maintained a forward tilt of 34° without leaning backward due to fatigue.

At 150 meters, her breathing was already rapid.

Each breath he took was accompanied by heavy panting.

Yet he still clung to Chen Juan's retreating figure.

I was hoping it could be done faster.

The second group reached a crucial turning point at the 150-meter mark. Kong Lingwei suddenly unleashed her "ultimate burst," increasing her push-off force dramatically, instantly lengthening her stride by 0.1 meters, and reaching her highest arm swing frequency of the entire race, attempting to overtake Liang Xiaojing from the side.

Liang Xiaojing sensed the threat and responded immediately. She increased the amplitude of her arm swing and, taking advantage of the tailwind, made her stride frequency match that of Kong Lingwei. The two figures overlapped again, and a dense "thump-thump" sound rang out on the track.

This drew cheers from the audience in the stands.

They were all young girls.

They run with a dashing and spirited air.

It is indeed a beautiful sight.

but……

At 160 meters, Kong Lingwei's "ultimate burst" began to show its drawbacks.

Overactivation of fast-twitch muscle fibers caused mild spasms in her right leg.

The stride length shortens by 0.05 meters instantly.

At this time.

Liang Xiaojing pulled him half a body distance away.

Ge Manqi seized the opportunity to overtake Kong Lingwei and temporarily rank fourth.

Kong Lingwei had to slow down and adjust due to spasms, instantly falling behind Ge Manqi by 0.02 body lengths, turning from a "competitor" into a "chaser".

This is the cruelty of competitive sports.

You didn't handle the details and tactical choices well.

So, lagging behind and leading.

It's just a hair's breadth away.

Short track speed skating ...

There's no time for you to think about tactics.

Mistake.

It's simply backward.

Unless you are like Chen Juan, whose abilities are outstanding in Asia.

Otherwise, a mistake is equivalent to...

behind.

180 meters.

Chen Juan could clearly see the electronic timing line at the finish line. Her arm swing amplitude decreased slightly, but remained stable, and her core muscles began to build up power for the "finish line movement".

Her speed decreased slightly at this point.

Yet he still far surpassed the other contestants.

The lead over Wei Yongli has increased by five or six meters.

The championship is almost a foregone conclusion.

We'll see in the end.

What were the grades?

Will it?

I'll also get a personal PB (Personal Best Practices) rating.

190 m.

Wei Yongli's stamina was completely exhausted. Her legs began to tremble slightly, and each push-off was extremely difficult, but she did not slow down. Her eyes were fixed on the finish line, trying to improve her time in the final stage.

At 190 meters, her breathing was almost erratic, but she still maintained her pace by instinct.

They demonstrated the highest level of professionalism of athletes.

Exhaustion training on Ersha Island.

It wasn't in vain.

It's working now.

At 195 meters, the rankings of the second group were finalized.

Liang Xiaojing took the lead over Ge Manqi thanks to her consistent performance.

Ge Manqi followed closely behind, widening the gap between him and Kong Lingwei.

After recovering from her spasms, Kong Lingwei sprinted with all her might, but it was too late to turn the tide, and she could only secure fifth place.

Yuan Qiqi and Lin Huijun narrowed the gap to 0.03 seconds, and the two engaged in a "battle for sixth place" in the final stage. The sound of their feet landing was as dense as drums, and it was difficult to tell who would win.

Bang bang bang bang bang.

Bang bang bang bang bang.

Chen Juan and the others arrived here first.

195 m.

5 meters from the finish line.

All Chen Juan could hear was her own heavy breathing and the muffled thuds of her feet hitting the track. The black electronic sensor line embedded in the ground became the only focus of her vision at that moment.

Because this match wasn't shown.

So let's push the limits.

There will inevitably be times like this.

Since it is the limit.

It's impossible not to be tired.

Suddenly, the range of her arm swing narrowed.

The elbow angle is locked at 85°.

We will no longer pursue arm swing assist.

Instead, let your arms rest naturally at your sides.

Like a bird folding its wings.

All power is gathered into the core.

This was her "finishing up for the finish line" move, which she practiced repeatedly before the race, all for the sake of a precise burst of power at the last moment.

4 m.

Her core muscles tensed up suddenly, and her rectus abdominis muscles were like steel cables being pulled in an instant, forcibly pushing her upper body forward another half inch.

3 m.

Chen Juan's jawline was taut, and sweat slid down her cheeks, splashing onto the track and creating tiny plastic particles.

It hadn't even landed yet.

Her chest cavity had moved forward on its own...

Stand out.

This has become her signature move.

Brown would definitely give a thumbs up with tears in his eyes if he heard that.

The core of electronic timing for determining scores is the torso crossing the line, and she knows this better than anyone.

So that half-inch forward tilt.

It might be...

The key to breaking personal records.

Her gaze was fixed on the sensor line, her pupils slightly contracted due to intense focus, and even the sensation of the thin air brushing against her skin became blurred.

The only thing left in the whole world was my own breathing.

heartbeat.

And that sensor line waiting to be broken through.

2 m.

A slight physiological tremor appeared in her legs.

After a high-intensity burst of 200 meters, her fast-twitch muscle fibers were already on the verge of fatigue, but her core remained completely unshaken...

Instead, it gripped her torso like an iron clamp, maintaining a 36° forward tilt. At that moment, a tailwind of 1.4 meters per second pushed from behind, blowing the sweat-dampened stray hairs on her forehead.

But it didn't cause her posture to shift in the slightest.

Instead, it's like an invisible hand.

Push her one step faster toward the finish line.

"Let's see if Chen Juan can open 22.20!"

1 m.

Chen Juan made one last move.

She suddenly slumped her shoulders.

I pressed the lower edge of my chest cavity down a little further.

At the same time, stop swinging your legs.

Make your body lunge toward the finish line in a "near-parallel" motion.

This moment.

Senses magnified.

She could clearly feel her workout clothes...

The airflow brushes against the sensor line.

You can even glimpse the red numbers flashing on the timer beside the track, which at this moment indicates...

22.17.

Nerves were stretched to the limit.

Even breathing paused briefly at that moment.

opened.

It opened at 22.20!

It’s open!
The moment Chen Juan's lower chest rim brushed against the black sensor line.

The fluctuating numbers suddenly stopped at "22.15".

Correct the grades.

22.15!

It's even faster than before!

The inertia carried Chen Juan forward three steps before she staggered and regained her balance.

She leaned on her knees, panting heavily; the thin air entering her lungs felt like it was carrying fine sand.

Each breath was accompanied by violent rise and fall of the chest.

My legs were shaking uncontrollably.

But it is not a lack of power.

It is a physiological tremor after exerting all one's strength.

but.

She was exhausted.

But mentally.

But he was full of energy.

22.15.

This is close to Sister Xuemei's record.

That's another step forward.

This.

That's Chen Juan's goal right now.

It was also the driving force that kept me running the 200 meters.

Otherwise, 200 meters would be too tiring.

It also doesn't get as much attention as the 100-meter dash.

It's not about having inner needs or goals.

There's really no need to work that hard.

It's 100 meters after all.

She has made history in the competition.

Success and fame.

"A new personal record!"

"Only 0.14 seconds away from Li Xuemei's time!"

"Finally, someone saw Li Xuemei's 200-meter-long back view!"

"And they're from our own China!"

0.14 seconds have passed.

Li Xuemei observed that Chen Juan's talent in the 200 meters was actually not as good as her talent in the 100 meters.

She could see it too.

But they still gave it their all.

To get closer to one's own results.

This.

They're just younger athletes.

Is this what we should really be doing?

Li Xuemei watched.

During the interview, he only said one sentence—

"If anyone can break my Asian record."

"It must be her."

"Our girl with the high ponytail."

As soon as these words came out.

Chen Juan's label.

There's one more.

High ponytails have also started to be used online.

It is used to refer to her.

of course.

Most of them were well-intentioned.

They are all looking forward to it.

They are all blessings.

22.15.

Chen Juan delivered a near-perfect score.
